I could turn this into a long post but I won’t. Just trying to figure out how long it takes to get onboard and should I just bypass indeed and reach out direct to the terminal?

It takes a while. Took a month when I was hired almost 9 years ago. OD is VERY thorough.

They are offering a 10k sign on bonus out here where I’m at so they must not be that slow..lol
You’d be surprised how blind management is,,, they always stocking up for what’s gonna be the next big thing,,,, even if they busy they keep you home bc not enough trucks.. ie 32 drivers, 30 trucks, 10 broke down

This is true. We have more drivers than trucks. Not to mention there’s several trucks broken down every day. A few weeks ago I sat in the break room for over 2 hours waiting for a truck. Kept 2 new drivers home last Thursday. 1 guy just quit and went to FedEx, OD kept giving him the runaround…
That’s how it getting at many places..,, some terminals not even allowing their linehaul to do longer runs so they can get the truck back in the early am.,,

Billy's made this same reply to anyone that's asked this question for the past ten years...
So they can get back in time to jump on a zero-turn for Billy's Lawn Care Service?

I must have missed the headlines!
It was in the Clarence Gazette, in the weekly crossword puzzle. The clue was, Old Dominion driver who now washes the boss's car.
